Overview
CompassPoint V2Xe is a pre-programmed 2-axis digital compass module with an onboard microprocessor for true plug-and-play compass magnetic sensor and magnetometer functionality.
CompassPoint V2Xe allows designers to bypass the time and expense required to build a 2-axis digital compass from scratch. It offers high resolution and azimuth accuracy, temperature, stabilization, and an all-digital interface. The V2Xe's non-volatile memory retains accurate calibration even when it's powered down.
PNI's magneto-inductive sensor technology provides low power consumption, high signal/noise immunity under all conditions, and software-configurable resolution and field measurement range, CompassPoint V2Xe is the perfect solution for adding compass heading functionality to virtually any application - from hobbyist projects and consumer electronics prototypes to high-performance solid-state navigation sensor and magnetometer equipment.
